Solutions differ from colloids mainly in respect of their

Options

A. solubility
B. particle nature
C. particle size
D. electric behaviour

Answer

C

Explanation

The essential difference between a solution and a colloid is that of paeticle size while in a solution the particles are ions or small molecules in a colloid the dispersd phase may consist of particles of a singie macromolecule such as protein or synthetic polymer or an aggregate of many atoms ions or molecules.
colloidal particles are larher than simple molecules but small enough to remain suspended susended they have a range of diameters between `1` and `1000nm(10^(-9)"to" 10^(-6)m)` .
